If I'm reading this correctly, the headline is...very inaccurate.

It looks like a dispute between two developers in Organic Maps, who both started out at Maps.me, specifically over whether their CDN redirector should be public or private.

Wow, so nobody traveled across the Mediterranean until the modern era? Gosh!

They tell you they only mean the ham-fisted stuff to get "reasonable" people to agree with them, then they move the goalposts and start calling everything else woke, regardless of "ham-fistedness," to get "reasonable" people to expand their definition of "woke" in a pejorative sense and associate a wider range of media as being "woke and therefore bad." Just like they did in past decades with "political correctness."

Someone's concern for privacy can change throughout the day or at different locations. To keep the metaphor going, they might be fine with the top being open while they're driving, but want it closed when the car is parked.

Same here. The learning curve is higher on Vespucci, but once you're familiar with it it's extremely capable!

Not sure how you get from Fediverse people researching what server admin/moderation structures work well and which ones don't to CIA censorship.

• Dropped Reddit and Twitter completely. Actually deleted my Reddit account and deleted most of my Twitter history.
• Stopped using Gmail as my primary email.
• Went back to DVD and Blu-Ray for shows and movies I think I might want to rewatch.
• Slowly importing stuff I've posted on various social media to my website.
• Slowly moving stuff off of Google Drive and Dropbox to my local PC and/or Nextcloud.
• Finally set up my Nextcloud server to use object storage so I can use it for auto-uploads without worrying about space.
• Tried out a bunch of different Fediverse platforms.
• Made more of an effort to report bugs instead of just living with them or using something else.
• Deleted Chrome as my secondary browser and installed Vivaldi. (I've been using Firefox as my primary for a while.)

Moving stuff is slow because I don't want to just copy it all over, I want to decide what to keep in the process.

Wow, imagine how upset they'd be if they listened to the rest of the lyrics!

"What would incentivise companies to use it over a regular website with tracking and whatnot?"

Nothing...and that's kinda the point.

Oh geez, thinking back to the "we had it first!" wars between Opera fans and Firefox fans about tabs back in the pre-Chrome days...

Firefox, and Vivaldi for the occasional site that doesn't work on Gecko. (They're built on the Chromium engine, but absolutely refusing to implement this crap)

"the private enforcement mechanism" -- which is essentially an end run around restrictions on what the government is technically not allowed to do itself, by heavily implying that they want something done instead of explicitly hiring someone to do it. "Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?"
